Rev. J. Lloyd Jones, of Chicago, de-.
livered most charming and
instructive lecture on the life. trials
and success of NIillet, the great peasant
artist, at the Normal on Friday night
last. Every parent who has son or
daughter to whose mind they desire to
present a noble example of untiring
perseverance, under the most trying
circumstances, as an inspiration to aid
them in life's dark hours, should have
been there and heard Mr.. Jones, and
carried home with them the valuable
lessons he drew from this marked
character, and stored them away as
precious food for their children's
minds during their years both of incip-
lent and more mature education. 1t
is to be hoped that the young people
who attended the lecture will make it
useful to themselves when discourage
ments present themselves, and obsta-
cles arise in the path of life.
